As per the seat-sharing deal, Parvati constituency is with the NCP (SP) with Ashwini Kadam likely to be the party candidate.

The Congress leaders at a meeting held last week had decided to claim the Parvati assembly seat as part of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) alliance.

Bagul said, “I met Pawar at his residence and requested him to give the Parvati seat to us. Now, senior leaders will take the final call.”
